Let the smooth slab serifs of Lubalin Graph help teach you How To Make Friends
By Telephone. “Be sure to give the person you’re calling sufficient
time to answer his telephone. Wait at least a full minute.”
Also: “You would not interrupt in a face-to-face conversation and the
same applies to a telephone conversation.” [more info]

I found the best time was afternoons – the locals are gone, and the sharks are
still sleeping it off, leaving you and a lot of really stupid people. That’s
when I did really well. It helps when some moron will take 2-7 unsuited all
the way to the river in Hold ‘em. It happened to me, it was great. You can’t
lose.

(Oh, and I totally remember this,
too. On the one hand, what a classic! “Where time becomes a loop.” On the
other hand, what a ridiculous amount of storage space in my brain is wasted on
television…)
